So Say We All
Here’s another show that I should have been blogging about a bit more often. Caprica is the much talked about prequel to Battlestar Galctica and it is quite brilliant. If you like your sci-fi as cold, hard-edged, futuristic “noir” then this is indeed the show for you. Looking glorious in high-definition on Sky, it tells the tale of the birth of the Cylons through the eyes of two significant but troubled familes. Mixing contemporary themes of terrorism, virtual reality, religeous extremism, and corporate corruption, the show weaves a tale of wonderful complexity and intrigue with good thriller writing. The fact we know the outcome of events (on the wider scale at any rate) actually works as a benefit to the viewer despite the logical conclusion being that knowing the outcome is in someway detrimental. I heartily recommend that you catch up with this if at all possible.
